(June 13, 2018 — Los Angeles, CA) 10 Summers and Interscope Records are thrilled to announce that British singer-songwriter, Ella Mai’s “Boo’d Up,” has reached #1 at urban radio. An achievement predominantly held strictly by rap and hip-hop songs. Produced by Mustard, the infectious R&B jam has crept up the charts, quietly catapulting into the Top 10 of Billboard’s prestigious Hot 100.
The half Jamaican-half Irish songstress will make her television debut this Friday on Jimmy Kimmel Live! As a result of the record’s chart-topping success, Ella Mai is surprising fans by announcing she’ll be heading out on her own Boo’d Up tour next month! Tickets go on sale this Friday at www.ellamai.com.
“Boo’d Up” is shaping up to be the surprise smash song of the summer. The single has been sitting pretty at #1 on the magazine’s Hot R&B Songs chart for the past four weeks. In addition to taking up space at #6 on Billboard’s Hot 100, the accompanying music video is currently the top music video on YouTube in the US, totaling over 72 million views. Noting Ella Mai’s success, Forbes magazine recently predicted, “She has a bright future ahead of her.”
It has been a whirlwind journey for Ella Mai, who signed with Mustard’s 10 Summers label and relocated to Los Angeles just two years ago. With a trilogy of critically acclaimed EPs (TIME, CHANGE and READY) under her belt, Ella Mai is now focused on putting the finishing touches on her forthcoming album.
